Very excited to see this go up, since I've been keeping an eye out for it. I haven't gone through and looked at the reviews yet but I wanted to say that I love the new organization, with reviews of the same show grouped together. Since I have a pretty good idea how my tastes line up with the regular reviewers, it's definitely good to be able to compare reviews for the same series so easily.

I have to say I enjoyed Space Dandy far more then I expected. I went into it expecting one of Watanabes normal kinda things (which I never like), but instead got a fun show with bizarre space adventures and lots of fanservice. I understand its probably not what you'd want if you were hoping for another Bebop, but it certainly is more in line with what I enjoy.

One of the Space Dandy staff said that the English dub was bad and recommended the sub.

Actually, if I'm not mistaken, he missed something in there, himself, and redacted any statement on it.

Yes he did delete his comment, but most people feel its because his bosses didn't want him saying negative things about the show. Of course, that can't be proven one way or the other, but I'd be inclined to believe his original tweets.

Pretty surprised that Spaced Dandy scored so low. Silly boob jokes aside, i enjoyed it quite a bit. Then again, i missed most of the hype surrounding it and didn't have very high expectations, i guess.

Oh and btw, i love the new format! Makes the guide a lot easier to read, thank you.

The optimistic side of me is saying that Space Dandy might need a couple episodes to get going. So far, its decent, hopin it improves

Especially with the ending being what it was (spoiler[all the characters die]), this is a definitely a series that I want to see the first two episodes of before I make up my mind whether to actually continue with it.

There's not many series coming out this season that I'm super excited for, so I'm thankful as always for you guys sitting through everything to let us know if there's something good we might have noticed, or what is definitely to be avoided.
